About

This site has been designed and is maintained by Damien and Vlad. Icy Veins was initially created as resource for World of Warcraft raiders, but the website has since then grown to cover most Blizzard Entertainment titles in a similar fashion.

The website currently has ample resources for World of Warcraft, Hearthstone, Diablo 3, Heroes of the Storm, Overwatch, and StarCraft 2, providing players of each of these games with all the tools necessary to progress to the top competitive level. It is of paramount importance to the authors that the guides be kept up to date, be accurate, well-written, and easy to understand, and much effort goes towards this end.

As stated on our FAQ page, a large number of highly proficient players (top raiders, members of top-flight competitive teams, respected streamers) work with Icy Veins to provide the highest quality content possible.
